@connorjdillon I don’t hear that term often. Evangelical Lutheran Church of America. They affirm LGBTQ. Is that what you are referring to? This is clearly not Biblical.

@avyargo @plumlee_ann @MikeWingerii My church has women elders but your allegation they are disobeying the Bible is false. Didn’t you know that falsely accusing someone of a sin is also a problem?

@peace_got @ScottCross_8 @pastherandie @5pur5y @CharmyRosewolf @JoanBandy @MikeWingerii That is fine. You are ok with the complementarian view. Many are not, and since it is secondary, we should disagree amicably and peaceably on this issue⎯even if i...

@jhkrantz @pastherandie @ronhenzel @Christ_like_ish @JollyStine @peace_got @ymmotrojam @MikeWingerii Paul is establishing order. The way church is done today is nothing like what Paul describes in 1Ti 3. Today it is all about position and authority; ...

@mythreesonsb @EtAbundatGratia @MikeWingerii So men are never usurping authority? Also where is this idea of a place of authority in the church even established that merely standing in it usurps it? All of this seems to be based on a conjectural int...

@MikedAlamo @HannahJasmine13 @MikeWingerii I said living at peace. That doesn’t

@MikedAlamo @HannahJasmine13 @MikeWingerii Right, it’s your church. But I’m a man and I’m asking what you would restrict me from in your church given I believe the scripture is egalitarian in the involvement of women in leadership. I can live at peac...

@Crystalisives @MikeWingerii Mike isn’t patriarchal. But I think I hear what you are saying that there is a patriarchal spirit behind these restrictions, so I’d agree with that. Without his call for egalitarians to repent and recommendation to loudly...

@MikedAlamo @HannahJasmine13 @MikeWingerii This is your interpretation on a deba

@MikedAlamo @MikeWingerii The WCF says nothing about women and leadership. I’d be willing to live at peace within the context of a complementarian church as I have for many years (which means I may share my views on certain passages but not in a divi...

@peace_got @ScottCross_8 @pastherandie @5pur5y @CharmyRosewolf @JoanBandy @MikeWingerii He also said 1Ti 3:15 was about how “one ought to behave” but the context shows clearly that Paul is showing Timothy how *he* ought to behave to deal with the fal...

@peace_got @ScottCross_8 @pastherandie @5pur5y @CharmyRosewolf @JoanBandy @MikeWingerii That’s a complete misrepresentation. You are assuming your view to disprove mine. Again, I don’t expect you to become egalitarian. Just the modest goal of not sa...

@peace_got @ScottCross_8 @pastherandie @5pur5y @CharmyRosewolf @JoanBandy @MikeWingerii The original purpose of this thread was not to convert you to an egalitarian. It was asking comps to not treat us as in rebellion to God and to not divide our chu...

@peace_got @ScottCross_8 @pastherandie @5pur5y @CharmyRosewolf @JoanBandy @MikeWingerii Elders are servants not masters to be served. Qualifying is related to character and ability. The only difference between elder and deacon is the ability to teac...

@bezalelplace @pastherandie @peace_got @MikeWingerii The thinking of these pastors is that there are other churches that believed like me. But I said I wanted to go to their church. They seemed faithful to the word and there are more things to consid...

@pastherandie @peace_got @bezalelplace @MikeWingerii A third church I went to said the same thing. Loved the pastor and associate and the people. But he rather focused on Calvinism as I'm also not a Calvinist, so his concern was that I didn't share h...

@pastherandie @peace_got @bezalelplace @MikeWingerii As I was looking for another church, I asked the pastor if he was ok with someone who is egalitarian. Would he allow me to lead in some capacity or would I never lead anything. He said the latter, ...

@peace_got @ymmotrojam @ronhenzel @MikeWingerii Not true. My last church had a mix of comp and egal. They only allowed men as lead pastor. I didn't agree with it, but tolerated it as a secondary issue. Egal is NOT the central issue. If it bothered m...

@peace_got @ymmotrojam @ronhenzel @MikeWingerii No, that is where you are wrong. Everyone thinks they are correct. And you can even leave your church and go elsewhere if you wish, but doing it quietly with the blessing of your church is the way to ha...

@pastherandie @peace_got @bezalelplace @MikeWingerii Last summer, I brought up the issue of women in ministry with a pastor friend of mine. I was attending his church but wasn't a member at that time as I was having issues with my home church which h...

@peace_got @ymmotrojam @JosiahHawthorne @ronhenzel @MikeWingerii I like Mike and have been listening for years. But he’s quite wrong on this one—which is actually fine, until he called all egalitarians to repent of their teaching and all comps and wo...

@ymmotrojam @peace_got @JosiahHawthorne @ronhenzel @MikeWingerii Haha! 😂 So why is God so worried about 2 hours on Sunday and not all the times people are teaching throughout the week? Even @MikeWingerii says that any time there is a service which m...

@peace_got @MikeWingerii He is free to sincerely believe and practice complementarian views but not to divide egalitarian churches and treat them like they are in rebellion because they simply practice freedom. Read Romans 14. Mike said this is seco...

@peace_got @JoanBandy @CharmyRosewolf @pastherandie @MikeWingerii You sound like you are not really open on this issue at this time. It’s ok to go to a complementarian church and not worry about this issue. What I’d like to minimally accomplish here ...

@ThomasPurell @sailemptyskies @ScottCross_8 @MikeWingerii The history of the church post New Testament is not an authority. It may be a consideration but everything tests back to scripture. If you claim they understood scripture better than we can, ...
